Phenom II 955 x4 95W version?

I have an old M2N78-LA (VIOLET 6) HP OEM Motherboard which only supports up to 95 watt deneb phenoms And I will be stuck with for a while but need to upgrade my athlon II 630, so I have been looking for a new cpu. When I found out that there was going to be a 95w version of the Phenom II 955 I held off on buying a 945 or 840 and waited for it but it never was available. Long story short I just looked up the 955 on newegg and found an OEM version that says it's 95w.

It should work on my motherboard

I remember that the number HDX955WFK4DGM was the 95w version but

Is this newegg link a mistake and its actually the 125w version? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113007

Any input will be appreciated.

I made a mistake on the first link I meant to put the HP link http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01925562&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en#N92

@Orabus: I thought it would be fine, it's just that the 95w version has been so hard to find and it seems strange that newegg got them in stock especially since the retail 125w version was discontinued
